New Years

There were markets like this in every little village that we drove through, getting ready for Vet (New Years)

Stopped at a temple built in the mountain caves. Our guide said Vietnam army hid there from the American soldiers.

Van Long Reserve. We stopped at the Van Long Nature Reserve to be rowed along a stream, through the rice paddies and through some limestone caves, along the Karst mountains. The scenery was beautiful and our little rower just powered us along. She was a older lady who had no problem until close to the end when she started to mimick being tired and how hot it was, but it worked, she got her tip.
